You are correct. MPEG at it's core is more or less a variant of still image jpeg, and the quantization stage of jpeg can produce a ringing effect due to what the real meaning of the quantization pass in the frequency domain.
But in any case, the --keep-hf flag to mpeg2enc in my experience reduces the effect of the ringing of sharp edges sufficiently that I am unable to see the ringing on my TV. That's not to say it is not actually still present, just it is of a low enough magnitude to be drowned out by the real signal. --- Steven Boswell II <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > It's my understanding that sharp transitions between light & dark areas > are one of the hardest things for MPEG to encode accurately.
